Inwood safe? Want to tackle the higher gradients.
I live in Murray Hill area. My usual cardio biking workout consists of going over the 4 east river bridges (59th, Manh, WBurg, Brkyn). The gradients is at best 4% during my ride. NYCC has a list of regional hill grades which show that the Inwood area has some of the steepest gradients in Manhattan (9% :O). I check Google Map which shows that I can get to the Inwood area on the Westside Highway. Prefer sometime safe away from car traffic so 5th avenue route or the east side greenway route aren't as safe because you have to ride in the street more. Westside Highway looks like a nice route plus it will get me to GW bridge which I haven't gone over yet. But once I'm in the Inwood area, how safe is the area? Can anyone s

Hamptons - Anyone interested in Riding?
Hi I am going to be in West Hampton next week and available to ride on Thursday and Friday. Saturday I am going to do the Sag Harbor Ride. That ride leaves from the Bike Shop at 7am although I have to confirm that time. Its a competitive pack ride although there is an easier version.
Its best to ride early but I am flexable in time, place, pace etc. Let me know - email [email protected] and thanks Dave
Women's Large Escape NYC Jersey - For Sale
I purchased a large Escape NYC women's jersey. It is a little too small.
If you're looking to buy one on the site, let me know. I bought it for $80.00 and would like to get my money back (so I can purchase an XL). Just think you won't have to wait the 2 weeks for delivery!
Does anyone have a Bianchi steel road bike that I can stand over?
I am 6 ft. tall and all of a sudden I am enchanted by the idea of a steel frame. So......Bianchi seems to be what I want. If I can figure out my frame size, I'm one step closer. I am not in the mood to go to a bike store (yet), and like Woody Allen, the biggest sin in my religion is to pay retail:)
